Low Efficiency Droop LED - Overcoming the Mysterious Phenomenon Could Lead to Affordable LED Lighting

Schematic of the transparent low droop LED packaging design (left) and a working blue LED using the design (right) Like a coffee enthusiast who struggles to get a buzz from that third cup of morning joe, light-emitting diodes (LEDs) seem to reach a point where more electricity no longer imparts the same kick and productivity levels-off. Now a team of researchers from California and Japan has devised a new design for green and blue LEDs that avoids much of this vexing efficiency droop. The findings will be presented at the Conference on Lasers and Electro-Optics (CLEO: 2012), taking place May 6-11 in San ... Read more »

Philips Develops Technology to Reduce Dependence on Rare Earths for LEDs

Rare earths are dispersed and not often found in concentrated and economically exploitable forms Rare earths are one of the basic elements of modern electronics. They are indispensable for producing LEDs. Since there is a growing demand and restricted quotas, the urgently needed decline of LED prices could be slowed down. Hence Philips has kicked off working on a technology that will significantly reduce its dependence on rare earth minerals for its LED lighting products. Read more »
